[Radiant] The Forum Hunt continues...

2008-10-30 Thread Mohit Sindhwani
I'm still looking around for a good forum to integrate with a Radiant 
site that I'm working on, and I have narrowed it down to three options 
in the Rails world:

(a) RForum - that seems to be updated less frequently, but seems quite good!
(b) Altered Beast - quoted as an exemplary Rails 2 application
(c) El Dorado - Seems quite nice and has nice extra features

As such, my main requirements are quite simple:
(a) Multiple forums, discussions and messages
(b) Good spam controls and support for moderating messages, users, etc.
(c) User control and registration
(d) Some integration with e-mail (like watching threads) - optional.
(e) Support for multi-lingual messages (UI doesn't need to be)
(f) Some support for Integration: modify style sheets, simple recent 
messages page, a simple user model, etc.


Looking around in the non-Rails world, I find that PhpBB is popular but 
has a bad name when it comes to security and some people say that it is 
quite hard to integrate with/ change.  Another one I stumbled across is 
called Vanilla and it seems to have a good reputation for a clean UI and 
ease of integration and support for add-ons.  URL: http://getvanilla.com/


Does anyone have any suggestions/ experience to share?  It is acceptable 
for the BBS to run on a separate sub-domain from the Radiant site.  
There is no need for there to be very tight integration between the two.


Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Mohit.

The last time I had the forum connundrum, I just used phpbb, but I did
notice an extension in the registry last night call Beastly (
http://ext.radiantcms.org/extensions/22-beastly) for bringing Altered Beast
into a Radiant app. You could try that.

That is sweet!  I don't yet know if the solution for me will be Altered 
Beast, but if it works with Radiant, it sure does make me feel better :)

[Radiant] Using textile inside of snippets

2008-10-30 Thread Joe Van Dyk
Given the following snippet (using the textile filter):

div class='section'
  div class='section-content'
r:yield /
  /div
/div

When I try to use the snippet like so (inside a page part that uses textile):

r:snippet name=subsection title=More about PSRC
# first
# second
/r:snippet

The list doesn't get formatted as textile -- I see # first # second
on the page instead of the expected html numbered list.

Any ideas?

Re: [Radiant] Using textile inside of snippets

2008-10-30 Thread Andrew Neil

Joe,

Interesting... I think that could be a bug in the implementation of  
the r:snippet and r:yield tags.


I'm not sure how this should be addressed. A snippet could be called  
from a page part, layout, or from another snippet, each of which could  
be using a different filter. I suppose that the most natural thing  
would be to use the same filter for the content inside the snippet  
tags as is being used in the context from which the snippet is called.


The idea for yielding snippets started life in my Wrappits  
extension[1], and was rolled into the Radiant core in version 0.6.8.  
You could try installing the wrappits extension. The behaviour of  
r:snippet and r:yield defined in the extension should override the  
behaviour defined in Radiant core. So you could experiment with  
modifying those tags, without having to meddle with the code of Radiant.


I'll add this to my list, and try to address it when I get a chance.

In the meantime, I suggest that you resort to plain HTML for the  
content between r:snippet/r:snippet tags, e.g.:


r:snippet name=subsection title=More about PSRC
ol
lifirst/li
lisecond/li
/ol
/r:snippet

Cheers,
Drew

Whitespace matters to Textile. Try this:

r:snippet name=subsection title=More about PSRC

# first
# second

/r:snippet

Ok, this is odd.

If the snippet internal is like this, the first ordered list works,
and the last one doesn't.

# link one
# line two

* line one


If the snippet internal is like this, the first two lists work, and
the last one doesn't.

# link one
# line two

* line one

# link three
# link four


Not sure what's going on.
